Here there are just a few select individuals that convert the G8 "back" to a Holden VE SS-V. They get the front bumper, hood or "bonnet" as you guys call it......they get all the badges specific for it. Not very common but a few have done it just to make people REALLY wonder WTF kind of car this is. The VE is only called a Chevrolet in certain Arab countries I beleive. In the US it is badged as a Pontiac, while in the UK it is the Vauxhall VXR8 I beleive?

ME......I keep it for what it came as, a Pontiac G8......it is rare enough as it is on American roads.....and I feel like it is a very unique car to have.

It is individual by state whether it is mandatory to display it or not. On this front it is a crime to put a plate on........too sexy for a plate.
I wish that was like that here in Australia... don't they have them poxy police revenue raising speed cameras in the states..? how would they get ur number plate if your speeding..?

They have them in the commie states of California, Washington, New York, District of Columbia (DC) all the New England states and Illinois..........to what we refer to as the lefties. I most cases if you're speeding, there is so much law enforcement in the US that you're bound to have a highway patrol officer catch you sooner or later........I know I was three times in a year back on 2005 :dance:

I think as time goes by you will al see more G8's hang out here too......there is a couple of g8boards around the net.
